Streamlining Field-Oriented Control Implementation for Motor Drives with Simulink

Overview

Learn how you can develop motor control algorithms quickly with reference examples from Motor Control Blockset. You can implement an automated workflow for Field-Oriented Control implementation, that updates based on motor parameter inputs, eliminating the need for redeployment. This enables you to deploy production-ready embedded software on target hardware and verify the performance of the algorithms across different motor ratings.

Highlights

1. Design a motor control workflow for PMSM including parameter estimation and gain computations for Field-Oriented Control implementation.
2. Deploy to TI C2000 microcontroller using automatic code generation.
3. Validate the algorithm on different PMSMs without the need for redeployment.
